Marine Stability Criteria: SOLAS Ch2
passenger ship#angle of vanishing stability#intact to passenger ship#flooding margin line#one compartment damage
Marine intact and damage stability regulatory criteria from IMO, SOLAS, USCG, ABS, DNV, and ISO standards. Covers GZ righting arm areas, GM minimums, vanishing stability angles, weather criterion area ratios, and maximum heel angles for passenger ships, cargo ships, tankers, fishing vessels, offshore platforms, sailing yachts, and small craft in intact, one-compartment damage, and two-compartment damage conditions.
